WHO DO YOU TRUST?Circle all the people that you could tell.

If there were feelings inside of you that you need to talk with someone about, or someone is making you feel uncomfortable, it is important to tell an adult that you trust.

Hi everyone! It’s Remy and Liv here, and we have a swimming friend with us too, Leah Smith.

Every athlete has the right to a safe, fun and healthy swimming experience. Safe Sport is how we keep athletes safe from situations that make us uncomfortable or cross our personal boundaries and what we should do if this happens. Let’s get started!

It’s exciting to be here at the pool. We have some activities planned to learn about Safe Sport.

Rules keep us safe! It’s important that we respect our bodies by following the rules that keep us safe. If anyone is ever breaking the rules, make sure you tell an adult you trust and keeping telling until you get the help you need.

“It’s just a funny joke.”

“Let’s tee-pee the entire locker room.” “Here, I’ll help you massageout your shoulder.”

“You are going to get them next time, we will work on your technique

at the next practice.”

“You can do this.”

“I can run faster than youaround the pool.”

“I’m going to head to the lockerroom to change.”

“That was a terrible swim.” “It’s safest to walk and not run.”

Knowing if actionsare right or wronghelp keep us safe.

Help us find the behaviors below that are not okay. Circle the people who arenot following the rules.

Having friends at swimming makes our time at the pool much more fun. Our friends should build us up and support us. People who say they are our friends but make us feel sad or bad are not true friends.

CONNECT THE DOTSConnect the dots from 1–102. Color in the image when you are finished.

MAZEGo through the maze and pick up all the qualities you show by being a great teammate and friend.

FIND T HE BOUNDARIESCircle all the boundaries, besides the walls, that are at the pool.

HERE ARE SOME EXAMPLES OF OUR BOUNDARIES BEING CROSSED:

Your coach gets a little too close to you while they help move your arm to show you where it should be for a certain stroke.

You overhear an older swimmer in the locker room trying to get another swimmer to talk bad about a fellow teammate.

One of your teammates tries to get you to put someone else’s clothes in the shower after practice.

Having healthy boundaries are important to your personal safety. A boundary sets a limit for when something should stop. For example, one of the boundaries we have in the pool are the walls.

If the walls were not there as a boundary, the water would go everywhere.

Our personal boundaries are just as important, they

let us know when someone is invading our personal space,

or when something is being talked about and is making us

uncomfortable, or even when someone is trying to get us to do

things we know are not right.

If anyone ever crosses your personal boundaries, tell an adult that you trust right away!

While at the pool, we can experience all kinds of feelings, and that is okay. But sometimes, it is hard for people to understand how we are feeling just by looking at us. If they do not seem to understand, we must use our words and tell people how we are feeling.

HAPPY SAD MAD SCARED WORRIED SURPRISED

MATCH THE WORDMatch the word to the face that shows that feeling.

Keep it up Safe Sport Champions! We will see you next time.

Thank you for having fun with us! Having a place to swim where all your boundaries are respected is the most important thing.

Remember, if you ever feel that someone is making you uncomfortable, even if it is an adult or another kid on the team, you should always go and tell an adult you trust and keep telling until you get help. It is an adult’s responsibility to protect kids.
